 That is interesting.
 I did not have that issue with .52 nor with .65.

I am suffering same thing/symptoms.  It will often (but not always)
power off on a straight shutdown, but rarely if ever on hibernate.  Been
happening since a late 4.14 and and still happening on 4.18.8.  Race
condition?

Everything shuts down and the screen  shows "[timestamp] Reboot: Power
down" - I have to hold down the power button for 10-15 seconds to remove
power.

Its annoying!

My previous kernel was 4.9.95 and the system shut down ok with it.
Then I configured 4.14.52 using make oldconfig and the old .config
from 4.9.95 kernel. And, after the usual compilation and installation
of the new kernel, the system could not shut down.

To not clutter this mailing list, I will send the both kernel configutations
only to your e-mail adress now.

I did have this with older kernels. Think it's caused by missing ACPI options.

Thank you for replying to my comment. Unfortunately, I already do not
remember exactly what happend after the usual "shutdown -h now"
command but as far as I can remember, it did not switched off the power
at the end of the shutdown process.

After I configured gentoo-sources-4.14.52 kernel with make oldconfig,
it even could not shut down the computer. So, I came to the same
decision about kernel quality and masked everything later than
gentoo-sources-4.9.95. (My 5 cents. :)

Gentoo-sources-4.14.65 is stable in the tree. Which is quite recent.

Which are you referring to?

I can't imagine that it helped when they moved the conference to where
he was going to be.  If somebody had booked flights months ago to get
lower rates, had hotels reserved, and so on, then that is a lot of
rebooking, change fees, and so on, and chances are the accommodations
aren't the same as what you'd have gotten with planning ahead.

++  Nobody owns Linus.  By now the kernel should be at a point where
others can manage the workflow if he isn't around.

I read the texts via LWN.  Linus has been the sergeant-major
who has to yell at the troops sometimes, when they get sloppy.
He's a brilliant software engineer & generally knows how to herd cats.

The problem seems to have arisen when he arranged a family holiday
which clashed with an important Linux conference
& irritated a lot of important people in the corporate Linux world.
He's  48 yo  & beginning to age a bit & it's no threat to anyone
if he's decided to take a break for a few kernel cycles.
I did note in a msg to this list earlier this year (2018)
that there had been no kernel stabilised by Gentoo since spring 2017,
which suggested there had been some decline in kernel quality.

As for New Yorker + their drama queen Ms Theythem,
they're simply trying to cash in on the incident to promote themselves.
The rest of us should concentrate on the real world + its many problems.

What do you think will be the outcome in this case?
